Underarm hair

What's the best way to remove? We've tried shaving but DD seems to have fast growing hair she's only 11, she wanted it removed and has asked for it to be waxed. I have no idea about doing it at home, would hair removal cream be any good? Any recommendations?

My DD prefers hair removal cream. I did it for her a couple of times at first and now she does it herself.

I always used wax strips.
Never get the ones for the legs 
ouch my hands!! But for upper lip/underarm it's a great option.
Right now I actually pluck with tweezers! Depends on how many hairs the person has

Hair removal cream is fine especially as most waxing places are going to be shut for a while. Do you feel confident doing it for her or would she be doing it herself?

I don't feel confident waxing it myself. I have shaved it for her, but she hates it, especially seeing the razor, I use Gillette ones, she won't try herself. I was thinking of an electric razor then she could perhaps do it herself? Perhaps I will try cream next. I would prefer a salon for waxing I wasn't sure if that would be possible given she's only 11.

I think an electric razor would be fine? I’m planning on getting one for dd, I had one as a teenager.
